In this even-handed book, Foster examines the three main approaches to moral decision-making: goal-based, duty-based and rights-based. She examines the underlying philosophical arguments behind each, their relative strengths and weaknesses, and how they can actually be applied. She also looks at the problematic boundaries where best practice ends and experimentation begins. Is it ethical to experiment with new cures on people who are probably dying anyway? And how do you assess quality of consent? This book provides a thorough, non-partisan grounding in what the ethical principles are and what informs them. It is an invaluable preparation both for a researcher being interviewed by an ethics committee and for the people sitting on the committee, and will be essential reading for all medical decision-makers.Human experimentation in medicineMoral and ethical aspectsMedicineResearchMoral and ethical aspectsMedical ethicsHuman experimentation in medicineMoral and ethical aspects.MedicineResearchMoral and ethical aspects.Medical ethics.174/.28Foster Claire1964-1681024MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807827003321The ethics of medical research on humans4050157UNINA
